Decimal numbers, wrong number of decimals

[theodortoma96]

Hi,

I have an excel file with decimal numbers (see price column).

The issue is that some numbers are wrongly parsed, for example 3.4 becomes 3.399999999999999.

This is how I try to read from file:

const readExcelFile = async function (file) {
  const reader = new FileReader()

  return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    reader.onerror = () => {
      reader.abort()
      reject(new DOMException('Problem parsing input file'))
    }

    reader.onload = function (e) {
      const data = e.target.result

      const workbook = read(data, {
        type: 'binary',
        cellDates: true
      })

      resolve(workbook.SheetNames.map(sheetName => {
        return utils.sheet_to_json(workbook.Sheets[sheetName], { header: 1, range: 0, defval: null, rawNumbers: true, raw: true })
      }))
    }

    reader.readAsBinaryString(file)
  })
}

This is how the values look when after read:

D7: {t: 'n', v: 3.1999999999999997, w: '3.2'} D8: {t: 'n', v: 3.2499999999999996, w: '3.25'} D9: {t: 'n', v: 3.2999999999999994, w: '3.3'} D10: {t: 'n', v: 3.349999999999999, w: '3.35'} D11: {t: 'n', v: 3.399999999999999, w: '3.4'}

Note that I've also tried without rawNumbers and raw options but same result.

Those are the actual numbers stored in the file. Since Excel and JS both use IEEE754 numbers, you can reproduce the effect in your browser:

console.log(3.5 - 0.1 - 0.2)
